Nora Cooper was the sister of Trinnie Ethel Cooper.

It's possible that Warren Penix first married Nora Horn, daughter of Thomas Horn and Martha Bailey. There is a Warren Penix of the same age found married to her in her parents home in 1920. This Warren is in house #161 in Lakeville and in house #164 is Warren's cousin, Tilden. According to her death certificate, Nora Horn Penix was born November 5, 1904 in Kentucky, and died March 9, 1921 in Ashland, Boyd County, Kentucky from general peritonitis. The oldest child of Warren Penix and Nora Cooper is Robert, who was born May 14, 1921. On his Kentucky birth record, Nora Cooper is listed as his mother, and that's just over 2 months after Nora Horn Penix died, so it seems unlikely that the Warren being researched here is the one that married Nora Horn. The information for Nora Horn will be posted here for future reference.

According to Social Security death record transcripts, Warren Penix was born January 20, 1900, and died in August of 1969.

According to Michigan death record transcripts, Nora O. Penix was born April 16, 1903, and died June 5, 1990 in Ypsilanti, Washtenaw County, Michigan.
